The time is given in seconds since the Epoch and therefore 36compatible to the time delivered by the time() call. 37 38SSL_SESSION_set_time_ex() replaces the creation time of the session B<s> with 39the chosen value B<tm>. 40 41SSL_SESSION_get_timeout() returns the timeout value set for session B<s> 42in seconds. 43 44SSL_SESSION_set_timeout() sets the timeout value for session B<s> in seconds 45to B<tm>. 46 47SSL_SESSION_get_time() and SSL_SESSION_set_time() functions use 48the long datatype instead of time_t and are therefore deprecated due to not 49being Y2038-safe on 32 bit systems. Note that such systems still need 50to be configured to use 64 bit time_t to be able to avoid overflow in system time. 51 52The SSL_get_time(), SSL_set_time(), SSL_get_timeout(), and SSL_set_timeout() 53functions are synonyms for the SSL_SESSION_*() counterparts. 54 55=head1 NOTES 56 57Sessions are expired by examining the creation time and the timeout value. 58Both are set at creation time of the session to the actual time and the 59default timeout value at creation, respectively, as set by 60L<SSL_CTX_set_timeout(3)>. 61Using these functions it is possible to extend or shorten the lifetime 62of the session. 63 64=head1 RETURN VALUES 65 66SSL_SESSION_get_time_ex() and SSL_SESSION_get_timeout() return the currently 67valid values. 68 69SSL_SESSION_set_time_ex() returns time on success. 70 71SSL_SESSION_set_timeout() returns 1 on success. 72 73If any of the function is passed the NULL pointer for the session B<s>, 740 is returned. 75 76=head1 BUGS 77 78The data type long is typically 32 bits on many systems, hence the old 79functions SSL_SESSION_get_time() and SSL_SESSION_set_time() are not always 80Y2038 safe. 81 82=head1 SEE ALSO 83 84L<ssl(7)>, 85L<SSL_CTX_set_timeout(3)>, 86L<SSL_get_default_timeout(3)> 87 88=head1 COPYRIGHT 89 90Copyright 2001-2024 The OpenSSL Project Authors.
